What is IBM Education Assistant? IBM Education Assistant is a collection of multimedia educational modules designed to help you gain a better understanding of IBM software products and use them more effectively to meet your business requirements.

IBM Rational DOORS Next Gen is supported on Jazz platform helping you to collaborate with other Jazz platform tools like Rational Team Concert and Rational Quality Manager in your environment.

IBM Rational DOORS Next Generation provides additional features like:

Enhanced collaborative environment for requirements management in support of engineering practices and project collaboration for complex and embedded systems; interoperability between versions of IBM Rational DOORS.

Advanced web support for rich text formatting, diagrams and graphics for capturing and managing requirements.

Integrated requirements management tools to help drive better design, development and testing during the software engineering lifecycle.

Expanded planning and lifecycle capabilities with compliance to industry standards and regulations.

Rational DOORS Next Gen has assumed the place of Rational Requirements Management (RM) for the Jazz platform that adds a requirements definition and management application on top of that common platform.

Now let’s discuss the DOORS Next Gen licensing concept.

DOORS Next Gen is the name rendered to the DOORS installation based on Jazz platform where you can enrich your client from a DOORS Next Gen Analyst or a Requirements Composer Client Access license. The contemporary version of the DOORS thick client is available too; this is DOORS 9.5.

Notice the fact, as per the screenshot above, that DOORS Next Gen and Rational Requirements Composer are based on Jazz platform activated by authorized or floating CALs (Client Access Licenses).

The Jazz admin can assign the licenses to the users by logging in to the License Management page which defines the level of access for each user.

Points to remember

DOORS 9.5 does not check out the license from the Jazz Team server; instead a license server is required to host the license and an environment variable TELELOGIC_LICENSE_FILE.

An IBM Rational DOORS Next Gen license is available at no extra cost to clients with active subscription and support for Rational DOORS.

DOORS Next Gen and Rational Requirements Composer are products derived out at different requirement management levels, however either one of the licenses will work for the other.

The same web-based Requirements Management capabilities are available to both Rational DOORS Next Gen and Rational Requirements Composer users.
